Heretic Medusa Manual Toxic Green Negative Cel Shade 3" MagnaCut Tanto Knife, Cerakote Blade and Handle – Made in USA (H009-NCS-TX)

Coming Dec 23, 2025

A Limited Release Showcasing a New Era of In House Creativity

The Heretic Medusa Manual TE Negative Cel Shade Toxic Green marks a major milestone for Heretic Knives. This limited release is the first Cerakote project produced entirely from Heretic’s new in house creative operation in Florida, introducing an all new finish known as Negative Cel Shading.

Unlike traditional cel shading, this treatment flips the familiar black accents to white, creating a high contrast, graphic look that feels bold, tactical, and unmistakably modern. Finished in Toxic Green, this Medusa does not shy away from attention, and yes, the finish is UV reactive, adding another layer of personality to an already striking knife.

Note from Lone Star Knife & Supply

This one represents something bigger than just a colorway. It is the first glimpse of what Heretic can do now that creative work is happening fully in house. The Negative Cel Shading looks wild in photos, but it is even better in person, especially under UV light. These are going to move fast.
